Kenny Loggins is married AGAIN! Music icon, 78, secretly elopes with girlfriend after two failed marriages

Kenny Loggins is married for the third time.

The Footloose singer, 78, made the revelation on Thursday during an appearance at the Grammy Museum in Los Angeles.

‘I want to take a moment and acknowledge my wife, Lisa,’ Loggins said during a QA for his film Kenny Loggins Conviction of the Heart.

Loggins and Lisa Hawkins eloped to Hawaii and the documentary even includes a photo from the trip, People reports.

The Daily Mail has reached out to Loggins’ representatives for comment but has yet to hear back.

A number of his hit songs have been featured in Hollywood films, including the title track of Footloose and the instantly recognizable Top Gun cut Danger Zone.

Loggins started to gain recognition in the ’70s while collaborating with Jim Messina as part of the rock duo Loggins and Messina.

The performer went on to garner several accolades and awards throughout his impressive career, including two Grammy wins.

On Thursday, he added that he’s enjoying working with his new stepdaughter Hunter, 25, on music right now, calling her ‘amazing.’

‘We perform together a lot. She covers all the high notes for me now,’ he revealed.

‘And being in the studio with her and working out new ideas is the most fun I’m having right now.’

In 2023, the singer retired from touring to spend more time with Hawkins and his grandchildren from his two previous marriages.

He was married to Julia Cooper from 1992 to 2004 and they had children Bella and Luke together.

His first wife was Eva Ein and they were married from 1978-1990.

Hawkins and Loggins, who have been together for around eight years, live in the upscale Santa Ynez Valley in Santa Barbara County.

Loggins, who hails from Washington State, has lived in the area for several decades and raised his five adult children from his two marriages.

‘I don’t know if any of you can relate to this, but as we get older, our memories get a little worse,’ he continued on Thursday.

‘And I’ve noticed how crappy my memory is, except when I’m in the studio.

‘And my engineer said, ‘Your memory’s not bad. You remember what’s on every track, every note plate, and you refer to them all the time. I have to make notes to know what you’re talking about.’ And that’s that place where I’m not an idiot.’

Loggins made a rare red carpet appearance at the 55th Annual Songwriters Hall of Fame Induction and Awards Gala in NYC in June.

The singer–songwriter, who was being inducted alongside Taylor Swift, is known for his decades-long career in the industry, as well as for his reputation as the King of the Movie Soundtrack.

Other artists that made the 2026 list include Taylor Swift, Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley of KISS, Alanis Morissette, Christopher ‘Tricky’ Stewart, Terry Britten and Graham Lyle, as well as Walter Afanasieff.

In 2022, Loggins – who is known for his unique blend of rock and pop musical sound in the 1970s and ’80s – recalled how he came to write the Footloose theme in an interview with AXS TV.

Even though the song is now a classic earworm, Loggins admitted that he had no idea he was writing an instant classic.

‘This [was] the biggest movie of the summer,’ he said of the Kevin Bacon film. ‘You can’t see that coming.’

‘The movie thing is an interesting synergy,’ Loggins continued. ‘The movie lifts the song, the song lifts the movie, and back then, it hadn’t been done.

‘Back then, pop music and movies were not necessarily symbiotic,’ he added. ‘All of a sudden, it was working.’
